The 2008 Prediction

That Foretold the Markets Five Years in Advance

In October 2008, Phillip J Anderson went on record on the cover of the UK’s largest financial magazine MoneyWeek and predicted a global recovery to begin in 2010. Not only that, but readers could know this was happening by watching the US stock market — which would lead the way first and go on to make all time new highs.

Anderson was the ONLY person in the world even remotely suggesting an outcome like this at the bottom of the worst downturn since the Great Depression. But don’t believe us — click on the image to the right and read it yourself!

About Phil

Phillip J Anderson is an Australian academic, author and student of stock, commodity and real estate cycles.

Drawing on the work of British economist Fred Harrison and American technical analyst WD Gann, Phil developed his own theory about 18-year real estate cycles in the early 1990s.

Since then, Phil has been using cycle theory to guide his own investment decisions — crediting the phenomenon with his decision to move to a 100% cash position in July of 2007, just before the GFC wreaked havoc on the Australian stock market. He has also built up a lucrative property portfolio here and in the UK.
